On the last Monday of May each year, Memorial Day honors those who have lost their lives while serving in the military. It's a federal holiday that takes many people off work, resulting in a three-day weekend.
This year, Memorial Day falls on May 27, and for many, this holiday weekend marks the unofficial start of summer. We've rounded up a few things to do over Memorial Day weekend in and around Clinton. Note: We recommend calling ahead to confirm times and access before heading out the door.
